Robert Plant and Saving Grace Drop Official Video for "Two Coats" Ahead of EP Digital Release
When the wind carries a song through the Welsh borderlands, Robert Plant and his acoustic ensemble Saving Grace are ready to let it speak to the world.
On September 10, 2026, the band unveiled an official music video for the traditional tune “Two Coats.” The clip, shot in the misty valleys that inspired the group, accompanies the four‑track EP Saving Grace: All That Glitters…, which will drop across digital download and streaming services on October 9 via Nonesuch Records. The EP had earlier seen a limited vinyl release for Record Store Day on April 18, 2026, with only 3,500 copies pressed.
The EP’s track list is: 1. “The Blackest Crow” – a traditional folk tune 2. “Orphan Girl” – written by Gillian Welch 3. “Two Coats” – a song associated with Ralph Stanley 4. “Poison” – written by Bert Jansch
The decision to feature “Two Coats” came after the band decided to drop “She Cried,” written by Ted Daryll and Greg Richards, from the lineup. Plant has explained that the four recordings were originally intended for a future Saving Grace album, but were released separately to give listeners a clear window into the material.
Saving Grace was formed in 2019 around Plant’s home on the Welsh borderlands. The group’s core includes vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, and cellist Barney Morse‑Brown. Their debut studio album, Saving Grace, issued through Nonesuch Records in September 2025, featured a similar lineup and set the tone for the band’s acoustic aesthetic.
Plant’s collaboration with Saving Grace marks a deliberate departure from the hard‑rock catalogue that defined his early career. By focusing on folk, Americana, blues, gospel and country traditions, the band offers Plant a platform to explore the roots music that has influenced him for decades.
The video release arrives as Plant gears up for a busy stretch in the United States. He is slated to receive the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on September 16. The ceremony is followed by the “Up the Sharp End” U.S. tour, running from September 18 to October 15 and featuring Saving Grace, Suzi Dian, and special guest Rosie Flores.
By making All That Glitters… available digitally, the EP expands its reach beyond the limited vinyl edition. Fans who have followed Plant’s acoustic work will find the four tracks a concise showcase of the band’s live repertoire, which has included “Two Coats” since the group’s inception.
In short, Robert Plant and Saving Grace have added a new visual dimension to their repertoire with the “Two Coats” video and are broadening the EP’s accessibility through digital platforms. The release aligns with Plant’s upcoming award ceremony and tour, positioning the EP as a key element of his ongoing exploration of roots music.
